Amendment 1 to the FMP for the Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska Management Area

This document is intended to accomplish two purposes. First, it amends the fishery management plan for the Gulf of Alaska Groundfish Fishery by extending the established optimum yields, statement of U.S. capacity, and total allowable level of foreign fishing from December 31, 1978 to October 31, 1979. The document also publishes proposed amendments to the presently proposed implementing foreign and domestic regulations which would make the regulations conform to a November 1 opening date.
